Add port of FreeBSD 'volmode' property

The volmode property may be set to control the visibility of ZVOL
block devices.

This allow switching ZVOL between three modes:
   full - existing fully functional behaviour (default)
   dev  - hide partitions on ZVOL block devices
   none - not exposing volumes outside ZFS

Additionally the new zvol_volmode module parameter can be used to
control the default behaviour.

This functionality can be used, for instance, on "backup" pools to
avoid cluttering /dev with unneeded zd* devices.
